Tennessee’s contract with Nike runs through 2026, so they are still three years away from starting negotiations on a new one.
I’d look for an alternate uniform once a year, but I don’t anticipate them mixing and matching. Good chance they go back to white cleats with orange accents, which is what Nike prefers.
Who else does uniforms besides Nike and Adidas?Tennessee’s contract with Nike runs through 2026, so they are still three years away from starting negotiations on a new one.

This team was 3-7 last year and we worried about uniforms
With any luck we will get away from NikeSince ole Phil is off the hill again, what do you think our future holds as far as jersey concepts go? I love the tradition that Tennessee is known for but it wouldn't hurt to veer away from the black football cleats and bring back the Smokey Greys for our athletic teams. Has Danny White or Heupal mentioned any type of transition back towards this? I know we have a new contract with Nike set to come up soon.

I thought that Bear Bryant complained about them to the SEC office because of the orange yoke. Then the SEC voted 9-1 to say we could not wear them.I remember when those were first worn by Condredge Holloway. They were the road uniform and the reason they were discontinued was because " the fans didn't like them"
